300

a masterpiece! 300 could well be this decades best made movie. to think that this movie was shot entirely in a warehouse, is ludicrous of course, but true! when i saw this movie, i couldn't belive a movie about an historic event could be so damn good!
The true story of what happened with the 300 brave soliders of Sparta is resembled 100% in this movie, although it is excagerated quite a bit.
I give this movie a full score 10/10 , simply because I think it is a movie about the past, which will live on into the future.
Was it worth watching: YES!!!!
Would I pay to watch in a cinema: most definetly, if it was on
Would i buy it on DVD/Blu-Ray: yes! without a doubt.

Quotes from the movie:
Leonidas: ''my queen! my wife! my love''
Soldier Stelios: ''its an honor to die by your side."Leonidas: "Its an honor to have lived by yours.''
Theron (corrupt Spartan politician), and later Queen Gorgo: "This will not be over soon. You will not enjoy this. You are not my/ i am not your queen.''


Facts about 300:
The entire movie was filmed in a warehouse.
Xerxes, the Godking, is played by Rodrigo Santoro, a Brazillian actor. I honestly thought that the role of Xerxes was cast by a black actor.
Ephialtes, the mishaped creature of Spartan descent, is not a entirely computer-made being. He is played by actor Andrew Tiernan.
This is not the first movie about the 300 Spartainians. the first movie was made in 1962, and directed by Rudolph Maté
